Why do my clothes get so dirty at nursery?

Click or tap on a pin to find out why…

Stain

This dirty stain shows that I have been playing outside today. Running, jumping and climbing trees helps me to develop my coordination and spatial awareness. These big movements will help me later with my smaller movements like drawing and writing.

Splodge

This splodge is part of my lunch! I am trying so hard to use the cutlery without any help when I eat.

Wet

Sometimes my clothes come home a little bit wet. I learn a huge amount of science and maths when I play in the water.

Pen Marks

The black mark was made by a pen. I am trying so hard to develop my writing and drawing skills.

Mud!

The mud kitchen is very messy but I really like playing there. It helps me to develop my imagination and use descriptive language.

Paint!

Painting helps me to develop my creativity. Even when I use my apron I sometimes accidentally get paint on my clothes while I create my latest masterpiece.

Scissors!

Ooops! This was a little accident! Next time I need to be more careful when using the scissors.
